Mayura ran and ran until she felt that her lungs where going to collapse within her chest. Her ruby eyes darted around in a mad haze, looking for the attack that was following her. Her light rose hair streamed out behind her as she tried to quicken her footsteps beyond the limit.

As she continued her futile run, she felt her feet come out from underneath her. She felt her head slam the ground and her body filled with starburst of pain. She felt like a knife had been twisted into her ankle, and when she looked down, she found her bones had been broken.

Her eyes searched thorough the shadows that assailed her from every direction. To her, each of the shadows was a threat, and every time she saw one out of the corner of her eye, she would cringe.

"Hide and seek is over…" said a voice, low and menacing. Mayura whirled her head toward the source and could depict the silhouette of a woman. She stood not far from where she was sitting. The woman stood almost as if she had all the time in the world, nothing could take away this moment for her.

"So the little angel has lost its wings," she said in her voice, which rung like a bell, "It's so sad that no one is here to see your fall from grace."

Mayura felt a chill run through her body as the woman continued to tower over her in her state of superiority. Mayura clutched her arms to her body hopping to put something, anything, between her and her attacker. The smile on the woman's face grew into a twisted grin.

"My sweet little angel," she continued, "do you know why you're tied up in this? You only have one person to blame, my sweet…and his name is Loki…"

Mayura's eyes grew wide. How did this woman know Loki? How did she know that she knew him? The woman stopped her pacing and came to rest in front of Mayura. The wicked little grin continued to play on her face. She started to giggle and then to laugh.

"If only you could see your face…so filled with surprise and pain…" she looked down upon Mayura, "I want to treasure this forever, for I am going to now give you the truth you have been seeking."

She knelled down on face level with Mayura, and Mayura saw her clearly for the first time. She let out a gasp of horror. This can't be happening…it's not true! Why?! She felt her mind sink into the recesses of despair.

The woman who knelled in front of her shared her eyes, her same hair. She shared her face.
